Live is disrupting the travel industry by creating the most curated platform that connects certified guides with travelers. As a marketing assistant I work on a varied amount as tasks such as content production, customer service, SoMe and financial statements. It is a fast paced environment where it is important to be adaptive and systematic at the same time. Working for a tech startup I have gained valuable experience about how important it is to be flexible and agile in order to meet the challenges that arise in a fast paced industry. I have gotten the opportunity to work with excellent people who constantly seeks to find new ways to solve a problem.

Orkla is one of the leading suppliers of branded consumer goods within the nordics. I was lucky enough to spend two months at Orkla Home and Personal care, where I worked with several market leading brands such as Zalo and Jif. I was given 3 different projects, touching upon the analytical, sustainable, methodical and creative aspect of brand marketing, which gave me valuable insight into the passion and dedication that is behind every successful brand. I was trusted with a lot of responsibility early on, and was given the freedom to solve my project the way I saw fit. As a Brand Manager Intern at OHPC, I gained unparalleled knowledge on how a market-leading brand constantly must innovate and think outside the box in order to uphold its position in a challenging market where the potential for growth has stagnated.

As a Sale Associate you meet and interact with new people constantly, and you have to be both agile and adaptable in order to execute great customer service. I have worked at Coop Extra in Tromsø, and Coop Mega in Trondheim which are two very different stores in terms of customer segment and price strategies. Working as a sales associate, I grew my prioritization- and problem solving skills. During a shift you usually have a long list of tasks that must be completed by the end of the shift- some more important than other. In addition you have to be agile while at the same time delivering excellent customer service. Lastly, you have to be patient, adaptable and good at reading people, as you will encounter different types of customers, all with different needs. Working at a grocery store next to my studies have been educational as a valuable work experience, but also in terms of personal growth.
